by | Oct 13, 2020 | Education, Z-Lead Image Front Page

Hopkinton Middle School principal Alan Keller emailed HMS families Monday evening to announce that “a person in the HMS community has tested positive” for COVID-19.

“The Hopkinton Public Schools are working closely with the Community Tracing Collaborative (CTC) and Hopkinton Board of Health to ensure the health and safety of all,” the email reads. “We are in communication with affected families. If you have not heard from either the CTC, the Board of Health, or me, you should plan on your child participating in school on Tuesday as he or she typically would. A plan is in place to move forward with the education of all students.”
